I'm the author of WOOL, a top 5 science fiction book on Amazon. I also wrote the Molly Fyde saga, a tale of a teenager from the 25th century who is repeatedly told that girls can't do certain things -- and then does them anyway.
A theme in my books is the celebration of overcoming odds and of not allowing the cruelty of the universe to change who you are in the process. Most of them are classified as science fiction, since they often take place in the future, but if you love great stories and memorable characters, you'll dig what you find here. I promise.
Thousands of them have lived underground. They've lived there so long, there are only legends about people living anywhere else. Such a life requires rules. Strict rules. There are things that must not be discussed. Like going outside. Never mention you might like going outside.
Or you'll get what you wish for.
What the press is saying:
Boing Boing's Official Review: "This story is terrific. I was completely immersed, watching Howey slowly paint a picture of a society gone wrong through the eyes and discovery of some truly compelling characters."
Wired.com's Official GeekDad Review: "Howey is among a growing list of authors who are making successful careers of publishing without the assistance of agents and traditional publishing houses. The traditional argument has been that if a book couldn’t find a publisher it probably wasn’t worth reading. However, just as iTunes changed how consumers found music and the way in which bands made their bread, ebook readers, and in particular the Kindle, are changing the ways in which authors find their readers and make a living. All of this means the old assumptions about indie books no longer hold true, and readers need to be prepared to adjust their expectations accordingly. The Wool Omnibus is a great book and deserves recognition as a full fledged contribution to the science fiction genre."
地堡的建立者精心设计了一套生态系统,为生活在其中的人设定了故事情节,并通过指令的方式提供了多种故障解决方案。后世的统治者只需要: 1、保证自己不够蠢,能够理解地堡的运作方式; 2、保证自己不够蠢,能够忠实的按照指令操作; 3、Enjoy作为掌控者的乐趣,与喜欢的人恋爱...
評分听说这本书要被拍成电影,我一点都不感到奇怪。因为它本身就很有镜头感:刚刚还涓涓细流、慢条斯理地描述一个场景或者一段心理活动,接着就急转直下,那种急切想知道结局的心情根本等不及眼睛追逐文字的速度。所以这毫无疑问是一本能一直吸引你读下去的书,说它是有瘾的毒药,...
評分科幻世界译文版2013年9月也有羊毛一文。作者是同一人。 一开始不知道怎么回事。后来买了全文比较,发现译文版上只有第一段。 译者不同。第一段写的真好,让人忍不住去买全本。 翻译上我觉得科幻世界译文版的译者好一点。 真可惜没有科幻世界出的全本。全本只有湖南人民这本
評分1、人物以死亡接力的形式登场,多米诺骨牌得以推动,于暴风雪山庄舞台。 2、开场提到的麦高芬屏幕,首先让人想到的却是1984年的苹果广告中的巨屏,自《THX 1138》的NETA。或者立马令人联想到《神经浪游者》的开场:The sky above the port was the color of television, tun...
評分別搞錯了,這可不是什麼『羊毛的五十道陰影』。完全不一樣。《羊毛記》真的有料,真的好看到爆,看了你就會明白,網路上那些High翻天、散播速度比瘟疫還快的狂熱五星口碑是怎麼來的……如果你到現在還沒讀過《羊毛記》,那你鐵定是那種完全跟不上網路流行、無可救藥的『老派讀...
當時坐在樓梯上看的...... 為啥沒有電梯呢??不是hard scifi。dystopian world building 特彆簡短有效,用小故事帶齣來的。
评分要不是機緣巧閤被作者主動送瞭一本,可能我就錯過它瞭。
评分真看不齣哪兒好,偶有佳句可傢具之間的距離好遠。前麵喁喁而語還算有腔調,後三捲衝突寫得非常平凡無味,對話人物都很缺乏吸引力,就Peter還算有趣。
评分一開始的劇情真的很驚奇很難以預料,後麵的功力稍顯不足,要看的話隻看這第一部就好,後麵的兩部據說更是急需敲打錘煉
评分真看不齣哪兒好,偶有佳句可傢具之間的距離好遠。前麵喁喁而語還算有腔調,後三捲衝突寫得非常平凡無味,對話人物都很缺乏吸引力,就Peter還算有趣。
